If you take a look in for example Continental Tires Technical Data Book; 245s are generally recommended for atleast 8" wide wheels, but are minimum (7,5" seems to be accepted with higher profiles, probably suited for SUVs and similar) The range seems to be 8" to 9,5" for 245mm and 7,5" to 9" for 225s.
